Operational excellence is more important than ever in today’s omnichannel retail environment. Heightened customer expectations and more competition across the various channels will swiftly unravel retailers who fail to deliver on their promises. This has led retailers to explore which operational excellence strategies best support the evolution of physical stores and the multidirectional workflows required for omnichannel retail. To achieve this end, retail software offers indispensible tools – integrating the data, operations, and technology – which are prerequisites for operating successfully in an omnichannel environment.
What you will learn:
This webinar reviews the main principles of operational excellence and why they are essential in omnichannel retail. You will learn how a modern commerce platform such as Openbravo can help you apply the principles of operational excellence and to make your omnichannel retail business thrive.

The heightened expectations of today’s consumers are forcing retailers to revamp their supply chains to make them more efficient, deliver greater demand responsiveness and ensure the optimal placement of inventory in the supply chain. An optimized supply chain brings multiple benefits in terms of improved customer service and logistics cost, greater flexibility in matching demand and supply, and it enables retailers to improve the accuracy of their forecasts.

In this webinar we explain how to optimize retail supply chains to better satisfy customer demands and boost business efficiency while reducing costs. We look in particular at the example of India, where the recent introduction of Goods and Sales Tax will bring major changes in the way procurement, warehousing and transportation are carried out. We describe and demonstrate some of the advanced supply chain management capabilities Openbravo has added to its product suite to help retailers revamp their supply chains and so improve competitiveness.

On July 1, India ushered in the most significant tax reform in its 70-year history by rolling out the Goods and Service Tax (GST). The new fiscal measures will fundamentally change the way Indian businesses and, in particular, retailers work by impacting many functional areas, including pricing, supply chain management, IT, tax, and accounting. We at Openbravo are delighted to now announce that our software is now fully compliant with the GST requirements, and so we are ideally positioned to help retailers embrace the opportunities.

Integration has always been a strong point of Openbravo software and we know it is a key requirement of our larger retail clients with complex IT environments, often based on legacy technologies. In this webinar we will explain how the modular architecture of Openbravo’s technology platform makes it easy to integrate with third-party IT systems, including Tier-1 corporate ERP systems. We will describe the model designed to support various ERP systems and integration scenarios and how it can help to significantly reduce the implementation time and ensure protection of existing ERP investments.

Effective inventory management begins with getting better visibility of what comes into your warehouse and what goes out.

The features include cross-docking, wave picking, cycle counts, quality inspection, dynamic priorities and travel sequences.

In this webinar we will introduce you to the functionality Openbravo provides to Restaurant chains, including specific features for table reservations, recipes or menus management, backed by a broad horizontal POS and ERP functionality.

In today's retail environment, retailers need to adopt smarter inventory management systems that enable them to deliver the right goods at the right time and at the right cost. In this introductory webinar, we will explain how to optimize inventory in your warehouse to satisfy customer demands while ensuring the business is not carrying excess inventory that wastes money and acts as a drag on financial performance. In a second webinar we demonstrate some the new features in Openbravo software that allow retailers to adopt sophisticated warehouse management techniques that optimize stock, space and staff use to reduce working capital requirements and so enhance financial performance.
